Shaker Filter Bags and Bag Houses

Shaker Filter Bags for Industrial Dust Collection

At Technical Textiles India, we provide high-quality shaker filter bags designed to optimize dust collection in mechanical shaker bag houses. These filter bags ensure efficient filtration, compliance with air quality regulations, and a clean working environment across various industries.

What are Shaker Filter Bags?

Shaker filter bags are critical components in dust collection systems that employ mechanical shaking or vibration for cleaning. These bags efficiently trap particulate matter from industrial air streams, allowing clean air to pass through while ensuring compliance with air quality standards. Widely used in industries like cement, mining, food processing, pharmaceuticals, and steel manufacturing, shaker filter bags are designed for durability, high filtration efficiency, and cost-effectiveness.

Made from robust materials such as polyester, polypropylene, PTFE, Meta Aramid (Nomex), and more, these bags withstand harsh industrial environments, including exposure to abrasive particles and chemical-laden air. The bags are tailored for specific applications, offering flexibility in design, including welded or stitched seams, various top and bottom configurations, and additional finishes like oil- and water-repellent coatings.

What Are Shaker Bag Houses?

Shaker bag houses, also referred to as mechanical shaker bag houses, use a mechanical shaking or vibrating mechanism to clean the attached filter bags. Dust-laden air enters the bag house, where the particulate matter is captured on the inside surface of the shaker filter bags. The clean air exits through the top, and the accumulated dust is periodically removed by shaking the bags. This shaking action dislodges the dust cake, which falls into a collection hopper or bin for disposal.

Key Features of Shaker Bag Houses:

  • Filter bags are secured at the bottom to a tube sheet and attached to horizontal beams at the top.

  • A motor or manual mechanism vibrates the bags, creating waves that dislodge the dust cake.

  • Operates in an offline cleaning mode to ensure effective dust removal without interfering with system performance.

Advantages of Shaker Filter Bags and Bag Houses

  • Simplicity: Straightforward design and operation make shaker bag houses easy to install and maintain.

  • Durability: High-quality filter bags are constructed from robust materials that resist wear, abrasion, and chemical exposure.

  • Independent Compartment Cleaning: Bag houses can be compartmentalized, allowing sections to be cleaned while the system remains operational.

  • Low Operating Costs: No need for compressed air, reducing energy and maintenance expenses.
